Well there are several ways you can tell if your horse is a good jumper. You can have someone take photos and/or videos of you jumping the horse and look at them to see his form. You can also free jump the horse by building a 'chute' out of jumps down one side of your arena and placing a jump inside of the chute for the horse to jump over. You can see the horses form clearly and watch him. A good jumper, will snap it's front legs up and tuck it's hind legs neatly. There should also be a bascule or arch to it's jump as it rounds it's body in the air.
